There's a short but very positive review of the "Ska with Laurel" exhibition at the New Walk Museum in Leicester (UK) from the Socialist Worker Online. Not surprisingly, the reviewer was particularly struck by Laurel's lyrical take on social and economic injustice (most likely in songs like "Landlords & Tenants," "Everybody Suffering," "Freedom," "Suffering Still," "People of the World Unite," "Stop the War in Vietnam"--but probably not "Pussy Price Gone Up").
It's also interesting to note that there is a lot of public programming related to this exhibition sponsored by the museum, including interactive art projects, musical performances (by Kingsize, El Pussycat, and Red Stripe), and more.
LOL! '...but probably not "Pussy Price Gone Up")'
